Boy George is charged after 'chaining male escort to a wall'

Last updated at 12:47pm on 13th November 2007



Boy George has been charged with false imprisonment after allegedly chaining a male escort to a wall at his London flat. Police said today that the 47-year-old singer and DJ has been ordered to appear before Thames magistrates next week.

He reported to a police station yesterday and was released on bail. Auden Karlsen, 28, claims he was a prisoner at the Culture Club star's home in Shoreditch. He said he met George on the website Gaydar but only went to the flat as a photographic model.

He said George and another man held him at the property after taking pictures. The star allegedly produced whips and sex toys and threatened him. Mr Karlsen said he only escaped after wrenching a hook out the wall.

George, charged under his real name of O'Dowd, denied the allegations when they came to light in April. He could be jailed for life if he is convicted.

6. Those Thames magistrates are keeping busy these days
between Amy Winehouse's husband and this fellow.

I think we have the makings of a fascinating reality show here.
